David Hunsberger has been working fulltime as a serigraph printmaker since graduating from the University of Waterloo, Canada with an honours degree in Fine Arts in 1976.  David continues to work at his studio in his hometown of Waterloo.  His art has been exhibited extensively across Canada, and his serigraphs can be found in collections around the world.

The technique used in Hunsberger's original prints involves handpainting stencils with a liquid stencil filler into a silkscreen.  Ink is then squeegeed by hand through the stencil onto paper in small editions of about 40 prints. Each individual colour requires a unique stencil and separate printing.  Hunsberger's serigraphs usually have about 10 to 15 colour separations in a completed print. However, the use of overlapping transparent colours increases the number of observable colours to many more than the 10 or 15 which have actually been printed.  This particular approach to printmaking creates a highly kinetic printed surface of unusual visual texture.

The imagery in Hunsberger's art is inspired by his fascination with nature.  Individual wildflowers, forest floors, shorelines, rivers, rapids, forest interiors, and panoramic landscapes have all provided inspiration for him.  His experiences with nature provide a theme for the printmaking process.  These experiences combine with painterly and technical considerations during the process to influence his interpretation of those experiences.  The result is a Hunsberger serigraph.

To view a complete collection of the artist's serigraphs, to purchase prints, or to arrange for a studio tour, please make an appointment by contacting the artist at or dph@golden.net.  His home and studio are located at 58 Peppler Street in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.
